Bug ID 789169: Unable to create virtual servers with port-lists from the GUI

Last Modified: May 29, 2024

Affected Product(s):
BIG-IP Install/Upgrade, TMOS(all modules)

Known Affected Versions:
15.0.0, 15.0.1, 15.0.1.1, 15.0.1.2, 15.0.1.3

Fixed In:
15.1.0, 15.0.1.4, 14.1.2.3

Opened: Jun 03, 2019

Severity: 2-Critical

Symptoms

Using the GUI to create a virtual server with a port-list or address-list fails with the following error: 01070096:3: Virtual server <virtual server name> lists profiles incompatible with its protocol.

Impact

Virtual server creation fails.

Conditions

- The virtual server is created with an ip-protocol set to a value other than 'any'. - A port-list or address-list is used.

Workaround

Create the configuration in tmsh. 1. Create an LTM traffic-matching-criteria object to define the port-list and/or address list. The protocol on the traffic-matching-criteria must be set to the protocol that the virtual server will use. 2. Create the LTM virtual server, and set the traffic-matching-criteria to the name of the traffic-matching-criteria object.

Fix Information

While creating virtual server with port-list from the GUI, a traffic-matching-criteria is created internally and mapped to the virtual server. This ensures that the traffic-matching-criteria object uses the same ip-protocol as the virtual server.
